Genshin Impact Nefer Kit: Leaked Talents and Constellations
Genshin Impact Nefer Kit Explanation
Before you check out Nefer’s talent and constellations, here is a quick overview of her kit:
- Nefer’s Normal Attack: Her charged attack turns her into a snake, allowing her to slither between enemies and deal AoE Dendro damage when she exits her state. When she uses her Elemental Skill, or while sprinting, it will not cause her to exit the state.
- Nefer’s Elemental Skill: Nefer charges forward, dealing AoE Dendro damage, and enters the Shadow Dance state. While having at least 1 verdant dew in this state, her charged attack is enhanced.
- Nefer’s Elemental Burst: Deals massive AoE Dendro damage to enemies by consuming all Veils of Falsehood stacks.
- Nefer’s Passives: All Bloom reactions are converted into Lunar Bloom. After using her Skill, all dendro and bountiful cores on the field are turned into seeds of deceit. These don’t trigger Hyperbloom or Burgeon or burst on their own; instead, Nefer can consume them to have stacks of Veil of Falshoods to increase her Elemental Mastery and Burst damage. Every point in Nefer’s Elemental Mastery above 500 increases her ATK. She also gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Nod-Krai Expedition for 20 hours and can obtain intelligence from a variety of sources.
Genshin Impact Nefer Talent and Constellations
| Talent and Constellations | Details |
|---|---|
| Striking Serpent (Normal Attack) | – Normal Attack: Performs up to 4 kicks that deal Dendro DMG with the ferocity and grace of a striking serpent. – Charged Attack: Nefer enters the Slither state, consuming Stamina to move rapidly forward for up to 2.5s. When the skill button is released, the duration ends, or Stamina runs out, Nefer will exit the Slither state and consume a certain amount of additional Stamina to deal Dendro DMG to opponents. Additionally, unleashing the Elemental Skill Senet Strategy: Dance of a Thousand Nights or sprinting while Nefer is in the Slither state will not cause her to exit the state. – Plunging Attack: Calling upon the might of Dendro, Nefer plunges towards the ground from mid-air, damaging all opponents in her path and dealing AoE Dendro DMG upon impact with the ground. |
| Senet Strategy: Dance of a Thousand Nights (Elemental Skill) | Nefer charges forward, dealing AoE Dendro DMG and entering the Shadow Dance state. While in the Shadow Dance state, if you have at least 1 Verdant Dew, Nefer’s Charged Attacks will be replaced with the special Charged Attack Phantasm Performance. Has 2 initial usages. |
| Sacred Vow: True Eye’s Phantasm (Elemental Burst) | Grants “revelation” to the mysteries of the false through Thoth’s true sight, dealing AoE Dendro DMG to opponents ahead. When unleashed, Nefer will consume all Veils of Falsehood to increase the DMG dealt by the current Elemental Burst. |
| Moonsign Benediction: Dusklit Eaves (Passive 1) | When a party member triggers a Bloom reaction, it will be converted into the Lunar-Bloom reaction, with every point of Elemental Mastery that Nefer has increasing Lunar-Bloom’s Base DMG by 0.0175%, up to a maximum of 14%. Additionally, when Nefer is in the party, the party’s Moonsign will increase by 1 level. |
| Symphony of Winter (Passive 2) | Nefer will be granted the corresponding buff effects based on the party’s Moonsign. Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam: When she unleashes her Elemental Skill Senet Strategy: Dance of a Thousand Nights, any Dendro Cores and Bountiful Cores on the field will be converted to Seeds of Deceit, and any Lunar-Bloom reactions triggered by nearby characters in the following 15s that would create Dendro Cores or Bountiful Cores will instead create Seeds of Deceit. Seeds of Deceit cannot trigger Hyperbloom or Burgeon reactions and will not burst. When Nefer unleashes a Charged Attack or Phantasm Performance, she can absorb Seeds of Deceit within a certain range, gaining 1 stack of Veil of Falsehood for every seed absorbed. When this effect gains 3 stacks, or when the third stack’s duration is refreshed, Nefer’s Elemental Mastery will be increased by 100 for 8s. |
| Daughter of the Dust and Sand (Passive 3) | Each point of Nefer’s Elemental Mastery beyond 500 will increase her ATK by 0.4. A maximum of 200 ATK can be gained in this manner. |
| Conspiracy of the Golden Vault (Passive 4) | Gains 25% more rewards when dispatched on a Nod-Krai Expedition for 20 hours. Additionally, as the head of the Curatorium of Secrets, Nefer seemingly has the ability to obtain intelligence from a variety of sources — intelligence that certain factions in Nasha Town might find extremely interesting… |
| Planning Breeds Success (C1) | The Base DMG for Lunar-Bloom reactions caused by Nefer’s Phantasm Performance is increased by 60% of her Elemental Mastery. This effect is also boosted by Veil of Falsehood. |
| Observation Feeds Strategy (C2) | Enhances the effects of the Ascension Talent A Wager of Moonlight: Extends Veil of Falsehood’s duration by 5s, and increases its stack limit to 5, as well as causing Phantasm Performance to deal up to 150% of its original DMG. When Nefer unleashes her Elemental Skill, she will instantly gain 2 stacks of Veil of Falsehood. Additionally, when Veil of Falsehood gains 5 stacks, or when the fifth stack’s duration is refreshed, Nefer’s Elemental Mastery will be increased by 200 for 8s instead. You must first unlock the Ascension Talent “A Wager of Moonlight.” |
| Deceit Cloaks the Truth (C3) | Increases Elemental Skill Level by 3 |
| Delusion Ensnares Reason (C4) | When Nefer is on the field and in the Shadow Dance state, you will gain Verdant Dew 25% faster. Additionally, while Nefer is in the Shadow Dance state, nearby opponents will have their Dendro RES decreased by 20%. This effect will be removed when Nefer exits the Shadow Dance state or after she strays a certain distance away from the opponents for 4.5s. |
| Opportunity Hides in the Margins (C5) | Increases Elemental Burst Level by 3 |
| Victory Flows from the Turning of Tides (C6) | When Nefer unleashes Phantasm Performance, the second stage of DMG dealt by herself will be converted to deal AoE Dendro DMG equal to 85% of her Elemental Mastery. Additionally, when the attacks from Phantasm Performance end, an extra instance of AoE Dendro DMG equal to 120% of Nefer’s Elemental Mastery will be dealt. All of the aforementioned DMG is considered Lunar-Bloom DMG dealt by Phantasm Performance. Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam Nefer’s Lunar-Bloom DMG is elevated by 15%. |
